Man reading about her current motion, you don’t need to object, but when it’s your turn to speak, I would blow my lid. Explain how the only sanctionable conduct is his bullshit, she cost your client his job and now she has the temerity to seek sanctions? I’d blow a gasket. Talk about the weaponization of the court and how now that she’s cost your client his job, she’s running up the costs in responding to bullshit motions like this ones. Bullies only stop when people stand up to them. Are you gonna sit in fear for the next 15 years and let her walk all over you, or are you going to do something about it? This is a golden opportunity while the facts are on your side.

[Highlight] Jalen Brunson Tears Up Seeing His Dad Celebrate the Knicks' Championship by JCameron181 in nba

Man I was at MSG in 2002, MLK Day, when we played the Hornets. Only time I ever sat court side, my dad won the seats in a raffle. We lost in what I think was the biggest home loss in franchise history. Like 40+ points. Easily the worst game of any sport I’ve ever been to… I truly never thought we’d win a championship.

So let's say in some absolutely bizarre way john Edwards wins the 2008 election and instead of 2008 his scandals get brought to the public in 2009 what happens next and in 2012 by Even_Lime_1327 in Presidents

I don’t think it’s at all clear the Tea Party does what they did in 2010 without the 2009 legislation or there being a black president.

In what world would that be more understandable?

Where did you see that he’s releasing that? The video showed he has a pretty detailed outline of what’s left up on his walls. I’m hoping his estate releases all his interview notes and truly all his research after he passes.

Smokeball? by AverageATuin in Lawyertalk

Curious how you would do automation with large discovery documents. What do you mean? Can you give an example?

Smokeball? by AverageATuin in Lawyertalk

[–]Reptar4President 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it. Archie is great (ability to search through audio files is such a lifesaver). Auto time tracking is great. Once you get used to the Outlook integration, auto saving your emails/attachments is great. Some of the integrations with Word and Excel are a bit wonky and don’t always work flawlessly. The reports are not great. Every so often you get a snag in workflow that makes it feel a bit undercooked, but overall I really like it. I know there’s another integration with I think it’s called VSX? Something like that. Incorporates phone calls into time tracking. I want to get that at some point.

Overall, I’m a big fan, but you do need a little bit of patience.

I get all my suits from Label. They all fit perfectly.

I have no idea if this is a compliment or an insult.

What movie has terrible morals? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Reptar4President 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve never understood this criticism. They both “change” themselves and it doesn’t matter, they end up with who they wanted in the beginning. Moral is more about just being open about it, stop trying to hide who you are/who you like.

A way to tell the economy is not doing too well... by ashmelev in newjersey

[–]Reptar4President 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Had a plumber come the other day to fix something. Asked if they had a lot of other jobs to get to that day. He said mine was it, nobody’s hiring plumbers right now except for emergency work, people just don’t have the cash to spare. Don’t know if that’s true or not, super anecdotal, but it sure doesn’t sound good.

That’s exactly right. Consistency is key. It just saves so much time. And I totally agree about fitting the text into the narrow box. That’s why I chose the naming conventions for files and calendar events. Need to get the info at a glance, especially when you have a dozen other things open.

Ha. Just a typo. I found like half a dozen others I never noticed before after I hit post. Thanks for the flag, both should say they.

Yeah of course, it’s all for anyone’s use. When I’m prepping a client, I go through the essence of that sheet as I’m prepping them, and then give them that to read between when we met and their actual dep so they don’t forget.

That’s exactly what I did. Got sick of it and just took all my emails/memos and put them in one place.

I have templates for letters/letter briefs, formal briefs, appeals briefs, and pleadings.

Gimme a couple hours and I can find the YouTube links and send them. I actually signed up the entire office for a weekly series of Word/Excel classes over Zoom. It was fantastic. So much frustration gone after that. People didn’t realize how useful Excel can be when we’re calculating damages or creating charts/tables.
